NCDC issues warning about the increase of yellow fever

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) has issued a warning about the increasing number of yellow fever cases in the country, coinciding with the ongoing cholera outbreak that has affected nearly all states.

Its Director-General, Dr Jide Idris, who issued the warning at a press conference yesterday, said that since June, the NCDC has been actively managing a cholera outbreak that has spread across 34 states and the Federal Capital Territory, impacting 187 Local Government Areas. 

According to him, as of July 15, Nigeria has recorded 3,623 suspected cholera cases and 103 deaths, with a case fatality rate of 2.8 per cent, but there was a slight decline in reported cases and fatalities in in the past week, attributing the improvement to ongoing national and state-level efforts, while he cautioned that the peak of the rainy season, which typically exacerbates cholera outbreaks, was still ahead.
